One of my favorite EDC’s so to speak.

off-topic posting >'I'm Jealous'... I was only interested in more lines between the seconds, I wasn't interested in the sub-dials at the time. Not that I need them, but...
Thinking of a 47.5mm chrono just so my eyes have a better shot at the incremental lines on the dial face. If it looks like I'm wearing a garbage can lid on my arm, I'll stick with what I have and carry a jewelers loop. Makes me more confident you're throwing props at it.

Not really sure how Maddogs Im curious - about ??? became a dick measuring contest about watches. But to keep on the thread jack thread Ill play. EDC Ti case and band and sapphire crystal used on ebay a few yrs ago for $70. o have other fancy stuff but my favorite is an old Breitling my mom gave dad for Christmas in 65. I never even knew he had it until he asked if I wanted it but it didnt work, Got lucky again and was able to have an expert rebuild it. Im so fortunate to have my dads classic vintage to sport once and a while.

I need to sit Rook down and have him study the assembly of a watch. Makes you have patients, a steady hand, and picking up a tool and tightening the screws that when tight, look brand new, meaning, not having the driver raising metal off the slot of the screw. I've taken a different approach to the bike's assembly; like hand spin the hardware so I know it's not jacked up in the potential cross-thread... before I take a tool to it. Even starting the thread with a tool took the same delicate approach.

A few more. Yep, got the exact same one Rudy. I also like Casio and Seiko. The Omega was given to me by my Dad before he passed in ‘08, his 25 yr. gift from Detroit Diesel Allison...’76 Seamaster.

mad5674, speaking of Omega Seamasters I saw yours and it reminded me I had one somewhere.
Went looking and bingo!
Was left to me by an old family friend years ago.
Suppose to be worth some money but I don't know.
Other watches are my day to day Seiko Titanium Sportura and Tag Carrera...

Then there's the boring mandatory stuff like my Apple Series 4 watch and Garmin Golf GPS watch that gives me yardages on any course I play...

Nice Yannih. Yes I think the old Omegas run around a grand, depending on condition of course. I have an old Garmin golf, but switched to Bushnell and much happier with it. It has twice the battery life, at about 3, 3-4 hour rounds!

Curious to know if smoking buildings, molo cocktails, pepper spray, urine, firecracker sparks, and umbrellas are killing off the virus in a protest/riot type environment? Where is the virus-spike in those states?
